First Car : 1990 VN Wagon with VQ front.

Hey Guys,
Here is my VN Wagon , my first car, my 18th present :) Love it. It is a blank canvas and so far has only had the stereo put in. Our old VT SS Wheels will make their way onto this car, after being given to my older brother for his VL, Then VS etc :)

It is a very tidy car, got it cheap too :) not too dissappointed at all :) Shouldn't cost much to get it looking good , I wouldn't think

So new update !

spent money cutting and polishing it and cleaning the engine bay up

i also just replaced Heads, heater tap, radiator, fuel pump and wheel bearings

here's some new shots.

NOTE THE DIRT PATCH IN THIS ONE- I get a bit TOO thorough on cleaning, i scrub and pressure clean wheel arches AND Weirdly, the under carriage

Ah okay bud, sorry, new to forum-ing.
She's got 245 000 on her , owned by an old couple who had 2 other cars, this was a spare.
Got it for $600 with End of feb rego,

Plans: new wheels, finish cutting and polishing it , MAYBE a new grille , try and find the boot lip for it (spoiler) touch up bumper paint and that's it :)

She runs like new , very pleased with it :)

Cheers, Brok
